just organised hks boost controller,with it off car will on full throttle rev to red line with no noise,with it on at full throttle it will rev to red line at boost up to 14 pound,but after 3 grand at full throttle i get a noise like a rattle or fast clicks,but car will continue to power on,at half throttle i havent heard the noise. was fine on the dyno couple days ago b4 played with controller,i read a few days ago someone explaining breakdown in the COIL PACKS,i think this maybe happening to mine,at first i thought the turbo could be on way out,but shouldnt it make a noise at all revs if on way out,anyone know what may be,if coil packs does anyone know exact details of how to silicone up

if it was coil packs the car would spit, fart, pop and accelerating would feel really shakey and jerky so it doesnt sound like that, as for the ticks and rattles could it could still be the turbo, i dont really have an answer for that

thanks mate,since then have changed spark plugs again and siliconed up the coil packs,checked motor vacuum hoses and found based on standard motor config,mine are/were wrong,changed and found car has more power and clicking has gone,although still have a miss. been told may be o2 sensor,so gonna change soon also see how we go

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
